Abstract

In recent years, marketers are becoming more aware of the potential impact that smell may play a significant role in distinguishing brands in the marketplace. An increasing number of fashion retailers are engaging with scent marketing in their fashion retail stores. The purpose of this study is to present the applicability of scent marketing in fashion retail stores. It also seeks to provide an overview of consumer and fashion retail perspectives. The paper is built on the works of literature from the field of fashion retail marketing and consumer purchasing behaviour, covering the period between 2005 and 2021. The results confirm the application of scent marketing in luxury fashion retail stores has a better performance than using in fast-fashion retail stores.
